>Could you please estimate the luminosity, Yamaoka-san?

There is no information of the parallax or the spectral luminosity
class for this object.  Only the proper motion is marginally detected;
about 15 mas/yr.  When we assume the transversal velocity of this star
to be 10 km/s, its distance is about 130pc, which lead M_V ~ 6.  So,
it possibly is a red subgiant (luminosity class IV). 

Sincerely,
Hitoshi Yamaoka
